The time cycle of the problem is from month 1 to 12. These people have been paid from month 1 to 12 and finally will get two projects in the 5th month. The salaries of these three people have been recorded as overhead expenses in 12 months. According to the ABC method, should the salaries of all these 12 months be divided on these two projects (depending on the complexity of each project) or the sum of salaries of month 1 to 5 or only the salaries of the fifth month should be divided on these two projects?

Required information Don Carson and two colleagues are considering opening a law office in a large metropolitan area to make inexpensive legal services available to people who cannot otherwise afford these services. They intend to provide easy access for their clients by having the office open 360 days per year, 16 hours each day from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. A lawyer, paralegal, legal secretary, and clerk-receptionist would staff the office for each of the two 8-hour shifts. To determine the feasibility of the project, Don hired a marketing consultant to assist with market projections. The consultant's results show that if the firm spends $538,000 on advertising the first year, the number of new clients expected each day would have the following probability distribution: Number of New Clients per Day 10 20 40 60 Probability 0.10 0.10 0.20 0.60 Don and his associates believe these numbers to be reasonable and are prepared to spend the $538,000 on advertising.

(ISC), a software design company. ISC’s first product was a unique software package that seamlessly integrated networked PCs. Robust sales of this initial product permitted the company to begin development of other software products and to hire additional personnel. The staff at ISC quickly grew from three people working out of Davis’s basement to over 70 individuals working in leased spaces at an industrial park. Continued growth led Davis to hire seasoned marketing, distribution, and production managers and an experienced accountant, Jan Smith. Recently, Davis decided that the company had become too large to run on an informal basis and that a formalized planning and control program centered on a budget was necessary. Davis asked the accountant, Jan Smith, to work with him in developing the initial budget for ISC. Davis forecasted sales revenues based on his projections…arrow_forwardDana Baird was manager of a new Medical Supplies Division. She had just finished her second year and had been visiting with the companys vice president of operations. In the first year, the operating income for the division had shown a substantial increase over the prior year. Her second year saw an even greater increase. The vice president was extremely pleased and promised Dana a 5,000 bonus if the division showed a similar increase in profits for the upcoming year. Dana was elated. She was completely confident that the goal could be met. Sales contracts were already well ahead of last years performance, and she knew that there would be no increases in costs. At the end of the third year, Dana received the following data regarding operations for the first three years: The predetermined fixed overhead rate is based on expected actual units of production and expected fixed overhead. Expected production each year was 10,000 units. Any under-or overapplied fixed overhead is closed to Cost of Goods Sold. Assumes a LIFO inventory flow. Upon examining the operating data, Dana was pleased. Sales had increased by 20 percent over the previous year, and costs had remained stable. However, when she saw the yearly income statements, she was dismayed and perplexed. Instead of seeing a significant increase in income for the third year, she saw a small decrease. Surely, the Accounting Department had made an error. Required: 1. Explain to Dana why she lost her 5,000 bonus. 2. Prepare variable-costing income statements for each of the three years. Reconcile the differences between the absorption-costing and variable-costing incomes. 3.
